Once again I had another amazing weekend here in Germany. The longer I'm here, the more I consider living here. I'm proud to be an American and what not, but seriously these people don't realize what they have! Friday night I headed down to one of the bars in Horb. Had a couple beers and spoke lots of German with the Brazilians. We kept it a short night though since we had to wake up early yet again on Saturday. Saturday morning we made it to the train station ...

It's a high possibility that my liver might come knocking on your door trying to escape me. If that happens will you send it back to me? Sorry it's taken me so long to update, I've been busy having too much fun! Last Wednesday we caught the train after our half day and ventured to Tuebingen. We got to see where we will be living, which is located right in the middle of the city. Compared to Horb/Ahldorf it was like getting smacked in the face with New York Cit...

Just incase you were wondering, this week was pretty uneventful. Just school as usual. The most exciting part of the week was one dinner when my host mom asked me if I wanted a piece of stomach? No thanks. After a long mental debate though I finally decided to go on the trip this weekend to Triberg (pronounced "Treeberg"). It's a small village located smack dab in the middle of the Schwarzwald (Black Forest), and is home to Germany's highest waterfalls...

So it's Saturday night, I'm in Europe and yes I'm sitting in my bed. Why? Last night was once again amazing! Whoever thought that Halloween should be for kids? It's much more fun to be an adult and go trick-or-treating for shots. Last night I was sitting at dinner and Angelika was telling me that Faschings was here in Ahldorf tonight.Of course I already knew about and was planning on meeting Elisabeth to go. However, I was not expecting to wear a costume or a...
